In 1860s America, what would your occupation be?

You like the players. No--you like the ones who can't help but play. You like a lion, a hero, a knight gone astray. A dancer. A killer. When you are with him you can only pray for survival...and eternal moonlight.

You got Francis Channing Barlow. Your soulmate is the quiet, reserved type, who prefers to speak with actions rather than words. Not that they’re a slouch in the brains department. In fact, your soulmate is probably one of the smartest people you know and is universally liked by everyone—and for good reason. They are also as devoted to their family as they are to their principles, which is why you’re so smitten.

You got Robert Gould Shaw. Your soulmate is idealistic and passionate about their beliefs to the point where they’re willing to die for them (in a romantic way). They write you long letters, expounding on your shared values and about the ways you can change the world together. And who doesn’t love a man of principle. (Swoon.)

Drawl, mud, molasses, slow dancer under the stars. Beards, dark eyes, shafed cheeks. You like 'em rough, real rough. You're a down home delta debutante, take what's yours!

CSA Lt. Col. Walter Taylor

You're an old soul. You're looking for a man with pedigree. Acres of land and plenty of horses. He owns everything in sight, but you own him completely.

CSA Brig. Gen. John Gregg

You got Joseph Hooker. Your ideal mate is bold, brash, confident. (Some people say egotistical—but who cares!) They have a bit of a bad reputation, but that’s part of the appeal. You two can spend a night out closing down all the best bars then wake up the next morning ready to kick some ass.
